attwood blower

  1. I bought a Attwood boat blower for my grow closet. It was a cheap 40 dollar blower, that should push 200 cfm.

    My question is how to i wire it?

    I have a yellow and and black wire with no ground wire. I know the yellow is + and the black is nagitive.

    Im just afraid of the Amps. The box says it draws 2.5 amps.

    Can i take a normally 2 prong extension cord and cut it in half, and wire the + to + and the - to the - without having a problem.

    Thanks

  2. Bilge blowers are 12 volts DC and will NOT work by wiring them up to a plug that goes into an AC outlet. In order to use it, you will need an (expensive) power converter. You'd be better off with an AC fan.
